Intrepid Cosmologist Mike Best is offering the opportunity to enjoy Planetarium shows. Please let us know if you are interested in participating and in which show. Thanks, Wendy
Cliff Jones and John Tremonti will be presenting the Winter Series
I'll guest-lecture the Jan 19 show on UFOS.
Here's our line-up...

#1 January 12 Human Colonies in Space
By the year 2029, as many as 10,000 people may be living in gigantic space habitats orbiting Earth. What will it look like? Where will it be placed? Impossible? They can be constructed with 1970s technology. Q&A, a star show, door prizes, and handouts.

#2 January 19 UFOs Are Real

As one of 83 investigator for Dr. J. Allen HynekÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s Center for UFO Studies, Mike Best is about as close as you can get to being an honest to goodness "Man in Black". This allows him to bring a unique perspective to a true 20th Century conundrum.

#3 January 26 You've Won a 7-Day Trip to the Moon

In the travel industry, a client often gets the opportunity for a pre-trip meeting to ask questions, receive bag tags, obtain an itinerary, and discuss what to pack, hotels, customs, shopping, and optional tours. Tonight you are part of an imaginary group going to the moon. Have fun. Get excited. Play along with us.

#4 February 2 The Last Day on Earth
Find out more than a dozen ways life on Earth can end. Some of the events can occur within the next five seconds. Some can take a million years. Not for the squeamish or the weak-of-heart and maybe not suitable for children under 9.

#5 February 9 Planets and Asteroids Part One

We wonÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t be rushing through the solar system this evening. Instead we will spend some quality time on the planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, Luna, Mars, and the asteroids.

#6 February 16 Planets and Comets Part Two

Continuing on with a thorough tour of the solar system, we take a close look at Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and the 1,000 known Trans-Neptunian objects that include Pluto and comets.

#7 February 23 Ad Astra (To the Stars)
For certain, we will eventually travel to the stars. What will starships be like? How might they accomplish the near-impossible feat of faster than light speed? LetÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s see how science fiction stories may be definitely accurate forecasting.

#8 March 2 Stars, Galaxies and the Universe

Where do stars, galaxies, and the universe come from? How will their existence end? Is the Big Bang still a valid theory? Discover star clusters, neutron stars, black holes, colliding galaxies and how we fit into it all.
